This invention relates vto means whereby window-sash may be partially removed o r turnedyout ofI their'casingfor cleaning or Other purposes.y

.The .princi al features are vertical rodsupon which t e windows are pivoted and a' movable or receding section of the jamb by whichsome of the guide-strips are moved out of engagement with the window-sashes, so as to enable the sashes to be swung out of the frame when desired. Y IInthe accompanying drawings, Figuie 1 is affront elevation and interior view of a Window provided with thepresent device. F1g.^2 is Aa detail in section showing part of the jam'b moved out or back so that the the parting and-guiding beadson the jambs. The sashes 10 and 11. are mounted pivotally beads are out of engagement with the` sash. 25

Fig. 3 is a horizontal section showing the sash swung `out of the frame. Fig. 4 is a vertical section on the line 4 4 of Fig. 3. Fig. is a cross-section of the frame on the line 5 5 of Fig. 1, showing the movable section with beads in position for retaining the sash in the frame. Fig. 6 is a detail of the weight-cord fastening for connecting the cord to the sash.

` Referring to the drawings, 10 and 11 are the upper and lower sashcs of the window. 2 is the Window frame or casing, and 13 represents on vertical rods 14 and 15, respectively, by means of angular straps 1 5, located at upper and lower corners of the sash and having eyes A or. holes through which the rods pass. The

rods are secured in place by inserting their upper ends in the top of the frame and their .lower en ds into plates or blocks 14a, screwed -to the sill ofthe frame. may also be employed near the middle of the v'arnbs to keep the rods straight. Wooden locks 21 and 21a may be employed to limit the up andpdown` 4 movements of the respective -sashes, and so prevent them from striking the eyeletsI when the sashes are raised or lowered. One of the jambs has a movable or shifta'ble section 16,l to which are attached the two Iinner bead-seoti ons 13a and 13b,- which normally form a continuation of the usual guide-beads A13.

"or lining of the casing. 1s .formed into a round pin and p asses-through rection Screw-eyelets 14v 17 is a bar attached to the section 16 near the top thereof, and this extends outwardly through an oblique slot 18 on the inside piece The end of this bar the slot 18 and'slotted face-plate 18,the outer partof the rod being screw-threaded and provided with a thumb-nut 18h, which nut has two or 'more eyelets-to which the ends vof the sash weight-cords are hooked. The nut 18b secures the slide 16 in its advanced or normal position and when loosened slightly forms convenient .means for retracting the slide into position with the beads out of engagement with the sash. The slide 16 is preferably provided at its ends with two cornpound or double hinges 19, which permit the slide to move vertically, but in an oblique di- When it is desired to swing the' windowsashes ont of the frame, the lower andupper sashes are placed at the bottom of the casing or frame. The sliding section is then moved back. One or both of the sashes may then be .swung open. The weight cords have hooks at their ends, and these are disengaged on the side-opposite to the vertical rods on Iwhich the sashes are pivoted. To prevent the cords ruiming back, these hooks may then be attached to the eyelets in the thumbnut 18h. The windows may then be turned on their pivots inwardly, as shown in Fig. 3. To replace the windows, they are turned back into the frame, the en ds of the cords atsec'ured or tightened by the nut 18h.

As shown in Fig. 3, the corners of the sashes 10 and 11 are slightly rounded', as shown at 10, so as to allow the sashcs when being replaced in the guide-beads to not catch on the same. I also preferably use thin strips of metal on the lower parts of the beads opposite the slide 16, as shown at 13d. This' also prevent.;` the outer beads 13-from being injured and makes'a close-fitting groove between the beads. u

I claim- 1. The lcombination with horizontallyswinging` sash, of a window-frame containing the sash, and having a jamb-casing with a `movable section, and a slot 'in the inside lining of the casing, and a pin secured to the section and extending through the slot and provided with a fastening device on its eX posed end.

2. A window-frame having a movable sectached, and the slide 16 moved .forward and IOO 'TIO
